When aliens known as "Mimics" invade, Keiji Kiriya (known as Lt. Col. William Cage in <em>Edge of Tomorrow</em>) is one of many new recruits forced into what is essentially a suicide mission and predictably, he dies in mere minutes. However, he finds himself reborn each morning to fight and die once more. On the 158th repetition, he sees something different - a female soldier known as the Bitch of War, who might just be able to lead to Keiji's escape, or his final death?
